EGO Red
A rich, full bodied cigar that immerses your palate.
EGO Red is a full flavored line of cigars. The careful blending of tobaccos from Jamastran, Jalapa and Indonesia are brought together to create a full flavor cigar that is further enhanced by “pressing” the Tobaccos together and aging them carefully before boxing them and shipping them to their eventual home, your humidor. EGO Red cigars range from a Perfect perfecto shape of 52 x 5 to the powerful Passion torpedo of 6 ½ x 58. EGO Red cigars also features a cedar lined box of 100 EGO Shots; a cigarillo of 24 x 5 when you don’t have the time or when you simply have the need for a Shot of EGO.Brand Details

Reviews
Overall, this was a very good cigar and worthy of its name. This is a cigar I would smoke on a regular and a great addition to any rotation.

The first time I smoked a Felix Assouline cigar I was so taken aback that I immediately contacted him and asked "why have I never heard of you".
ego -
Full and complex; spicy with notes of cedar and sweet cream, with a warm leather and cocoa finish. Rating of 91.
ego - Perfect
It is a great cigar that offers solid flavor and a rich full body.

Full of sweet earthy notes

There is no doubt that Felix knows his cigars as the construction on this baby was flawless. Great draw, even burn, gorgeous layered ash.

"I would definitely smoke more of these and would consider it box-worthy. It wasn’t strong enough to scare away anyone, but enough to make it exciting.”
ego - Perfect
The flavors are relatively steady throughout, but there’s enough depth to the flavor that it isn’t dull. Construction is free of any flaws.

This was the first time that I had ever heard of Felix Assouline Cigars and was very interested in giving the cigars a try.
ego - Perfect
First light reveals a perfect draw with full bodies creamy spicy, peppery earth holding through a long smooth finish.
ego - Maniac
All three of us agreed that this was a very nice surprise and none of us have had an experience this enjoyable with such a small cigar.

It’s pretty risky to name a cigar Ego…In the case of cigars by Felix Assouline the name is justified.
